Until next weekend.  We’re never done this early.

 

Nah--we're done.  We'll have warmth of course, but we're now into the "back-end snow' aspect of summer.   Nothing to see here folks.

Looks like some areas in Ware-Brookfield could grab 4-5" . 1.48" here, less than a mile west has a tenth or so. 

 

Some big thunder and lightning now.

Yeah--long duration event.

1.71".

from NWS discussion for Tuesday. 

 


Heavy downpours are also likely, PWAT values are between 1.50" and
1.80" during the afternoon. Urban flooding would be the biggest
concern as area waterways remain lower than normal as a result of
the dry weather pattern.

Oh there will be storms with heavy downpours, maybe a nice broken squall line. Not expecting much here

We'll see.  I guess it depends on the threshold of what warmth (like I said) is and heat.  I know in late August, some lower the bar on what consitutes a torch.  Rightfully so.

 

It doesn’t take much to flip to some high 80s low 90s for 3-4 days this time of year.  September can swelter.

That’s like saying when a team is up by 2 runs in the 7th inning it’s over.

It's like the late winter equivalent of when Tip starts talking about how warm the interior of vehicles is now getting in the sunshine, and DIT starts calling snowfalls as "stat padders only" because daytime snow starts leading to wet pavement.

September is so much like March... it offers a mix of both the previous season and also starts to preview the upcoming season at times.  Also can lead to some big gradients across New England for sensible weather as the seasons start to battle it out.

What a rain event just north of the Pike and west of ORH.  Narrow zone there with 4-6" it seems.

There's a spot in Ware, MA just over 6" if it's legit.  But it's in the same zone as 3-5" amounts. 

Wickabog Pond in Brookfield probably saw a pretty good rise in water level.  Nearing 5" in that area.

We're both a tad to far SW, if we get something it's probably as it's fizzling out.  One hell of a light show especially  here in the valley with the open fields.  

Yeah. Had some rumbles and one or two louder bangs. And the outflow boundary came thru with some wind. Still can see lightning way off to the NNE. Maybe Tuesday but timing is early so it probably favors ENE again
